What had the initial appearance of a sure challenger thing quickly turned into a dead issue and left some in the Magoffin County Democrat Party wondering exactly what happened.

Young, safety conscious followers of the rules of the road will soon be targeted by the Magoffin County Sheriff’s Department.
And those doing no wrong will be at risk of receiving tickets. But these are the types of tickets any youngster will find useful.
“They are safety tickets and they will be given to younger people,” Sheriff Bob Jordan said. “When I see people, or one of my deputies sees someone practicing safe driving, safety in the park, or anything like that we will issue them a ticket.”

Ronnie Ward, 49, of Salyersville was arrested Sunday night at his mother’s residence on Lick Creek following a stand-off with police.
According to Magoffin County Sheriff Bob Jordan, the incident started at approximately 8 p.m. when Ward reportedly threatened his mother with a firearm..
Police eventually took Ward into custody at 10:15 p.m. and charged him with first degree wanton endangerment.
Ward, a police report said, had his mother inside of the residence holding her against her will and threatening to do bodily harm.
